does anyone remember...

I had seen an article about putting zip ties around brake lines to reduce brake fade and increase burst pressure, does anyone remember this? I can't find it...

Thanks,
Joe

Unless you have specific racing rules against it, why not just buy stainless steel lines??????????????????

I am going to do a burst test at school, and look at line expansion causing brake fade.

Thanks again!
